How do I set up a Hypothesis reading in Blackboard?

Instructions

  1. In a content area, click Build Content.

  2. Select Hypothesis from the menu.

    • Note: The list of tools is not alphabetical and we wish we could fix it.

  3. Enter a name for your assignment (e.g. “Hypothesis Reading Week 1”).

  4. If you want to be able to grade this assignment later, under Enable Evaluations select Yes and enter a number for the maximum points possible.

  5. Click Submit.

If you do not see Hypothesis listed in the menu, you will need to first make the tool visible by selecting Customization > Tool Availability from the sidebar, locating Hypothesis in the list, and checking the box to make Hypothesis Available In Content Area.
